Prince-Bythewood doesn’t seem convinced any version of Silver & Black will happen, but she does tell THR that Sony is exploring a different option: streaming.

“Things are the status quo on my side,” said Prince-Bythwood. “I really love that project, and I do hope it can still happen in some way. It keeps going through different thoughts. First, it was going to be the two of them, and then the decision was made to separate the two. Now, there’s a thought of ‘Hey, maybe we put it on Disney+ as a limited series,’ but I loved it more as a film with the two of them. So, my hope is that one day it can still happen.”

So this is interesting because it’s going to have a lot of people assuming Sony and Marvel have struck a deal to bring a Spider-Man spinoff to Disney+. While Sony and Marvel have made their peace when it comes to Tom Holland’s version of Spidey, there’s no such deal that would bring other Sony projects to the house of Disney. This would be like if Venom suddenly showed up on Disney+ right next to Avengers: Endgame. Not likely, or at least it isn’t likely yet.

Perhaps, and this is a big “if”, Sony could and Disney could work something out for it to be on Hulu? To the best of my knowledge there is nothing that stops Sony from shopping this wherever they want, be it Apple TV+, Amazon Prime, or even Quibi?
